Cost of postage is not cheap - how quick do you want it,
immediately, 2 weeks, 4 weeks or 6 to 8 weeks.

I want to check it before I send it, packing will take a
little time - how is your schedule, sounds busy?

No rush. 6 to 8 weeks is OK. These things take time.
What is the cost difference 4 weeks to 6 to 8 weeks?

Paul,
From memory it costs double from 2 weeks to 6 to 8 weeks.
I want to get it to you ASAP so I will settle on the 4 weeks.
The cost, when it's converted to US Dollars is not too bad - it only
hurts
this end because the exchange rate is well on your side.

I won't quote a price until I've sorted out the cost with packing which
will
add a little.

Paul could you get a price in US dollars for a parcel post of say 16 or
17
lbs (including packing) sent from LA to the other side of the country. I
would like to do a cost comparison from Aust to the US.
Thanks Mate!

My guess is less than about $20 US. These water pumps parcel post
are costing less than $10. the bell housing may be too large for parcel
post.
UPS ground would be about $30 US my guess.

Paul,
The cost estimate from our post office was in that ball park figure for the
6 to 8 week time frame - which isn't bad for that distance.
